On his side are many factors, with the exception of age, and that Dan "Billions" Snyder will make the salary-cap era more manageable for the Skins. As quickly as Gibbs was cast as a disappointment, he'll be back in the surprise category next season.”

He's no more than a high-priced backup at this point, and some have argued that Gibbs was too slow to pull the trigger and go with Patrick Ramsey.

Really can't argue with that
This time next year though, we'll be making our Redskins Divisional Playoffs predictions!
